I don't know about you, but I've always felt like the September back-to-school season was my real "new year". This is when I make new resolutions and hold myself to them. How about you?

As I'd noted in our last update, we held a little end of summer soirée with the good folks at MaRS. Using a really great free surveying tool, Tally (I love it!), ended up with an NPS of +38 with a 100% "would do it again" rate. I think this means I can now retire a middle-income man.

Finally, one quick ask: we're busy recruiting guests and expect to launch ASAP, but if you know of any investors or entrepreneurs outside of Canada who are building their tech companies differently (getting off venture, late to get on to venture, bootstrapping, etc.), send them our way!

All In in Montréal

I'll be in Montréal on September 11-12 for the All In event focusing on the Canadian AI ecosystem: startups, incumbents, and governments. I'm hosting a new startup pitch sessions called the AI Challenge that are a little... different... both days. The first day is focuses on construction, second is about off-the-shelf AI. This sophomore year is shaping up to be a doozy, so I hope to see you there or at least on the socials.
